Nicest Squirrel

There is the nicest squirrel hanging out in the front yard. We think he must live in our neighbor's oak. Anyway, we're very pleased to have this squirrel as a neighbor. The humans put the pumpkin we were using for Halloween out in the yard for any needy animals, and the new squirrel neighbor trotted right over. And do you know what he has been doing? He's been burying the seeds! He's doing gardening! A gardening squirrel. What a nice creature, and a perfect friend for us. Honestly, our brother has been lurking in the window, yelling about this, and the fact that our front yard might be turned into a pumpkin patch come spring, but really we think he's just being ridiculous. And anyway, what's wrong with doing away with the yard for a pumpkin patch? It will save on mowing, and perhaps if we create a nice enough patch, it will lure in that Great Pumpkin creature that funny child with the blanket is always talking about.
